Default Banzai Motorsports?

Anyone had any dealings with Banzai Motorsports Spring Lake, IL

http://www.banzai-motorsports.com/

They have lots of used bikes and pretty good prices... but being the skeptic I am it seems to good to be true... any one have an experience or opinion?

We do a fair amount of work on their customs, I have always paids us to make sure the bike was right.They never has skimped on any repairs. Just make sure that you agree on the price with everything included. Tax,Lic,Title,Doc and shipping etc, if it'sall there and your happy with the deal,I'm sure you will be getting a decent product,from my experience.

I've seen their ads. The prices look good, especially if they deal.

That's Jason and "King" Jerry's new store, they used to be Chicago Cycle Center. The new Banzai is about the 4th or 5th sleepy store they acquired, built business volume and then sold at a nice profit. Banzai in Libertyville was 3 stores before, the guy they sold it to knew squat about the bike biz and lost big time.

Greetings,

Like anything else, go there and inspect the bike yourself. Get anything in writing. I'm not being negative, I just don't trust places that specialize in used inventory.

Went with a friend yesterday who ended up with a 07 Heritage with 10k miles for about 14500 OTD. They will try to high pressure you, but they have TONS of inventory they need to sell. They have 2 warehouses and 40 storage lockers full.
